Alex Bregman, who is being pursued in MLB free agency by the Detroit Tigers, is reportedly back in talks with the Houston Astros, his former MLB club.

That possibility seemed dead in December, when general manager Dana Brown said talks between both sides had “stalled” and the team pivoted to first baseman Christian Walker. A lack of clarity in Bregman’s market across the past month may have allowed the Astros back into the fray.
